C., Special.—"This question involves hundreds of mil lions of dollars ami the welfare of millions of people," declared T. J. Brooks, of Atwood, Tenn., president of the Farmers' National Union, in opening the hearing on the anti option bills before the House com mittee on agriculture last Wednes day. The proposed legislation is designed to prohibit dealings in fu tures on boards of trade and ex changes. The committee room was crowded with Congressmen from the States interested. Mr. Brooks declared that dealings in futures of cotton were no more necessary than in wheat and wool and farm implements. Hedging opera tions "on change" he characterized as no different from gambling on the rice and fall of prices. "On what moral principles,' 1 he asked, "is one class of citizens oblig ed to make up for the losses of an other class, for where one gains an other must lose? The original inten tion of the cotton exchange to brinp the buyer and seller together has been eliminated in the development of present exchange practices. "We are willing to abid6 by the results of abolishing futures," he 6aid, depicting the temptations held out to the prospective victims who later "come into the game" and get "frozen out." Under the shadow of the ex changes, competition among local buyers had been eliminated in the South, he said, and he charged the existence of a tacit understanding in the cotton and tobacco belts for di vision of territory. The farmers' union which Mr. Brooks represents has a membership extending over 29 States.' Characterized by Mr. Lever of South Carolina as the largest con sumer of cotton in the South, Lewis W. Parker, a Greenville, S. C., man ufacturer, contended that abnormal conditions ought to he represented at the same time. He said that as a rule futures control spot cotton. He declared that the exchanges are not of advantage, either to the consumer or the producer and that it seemed im possible to make the exchanges real ize the fairness of the complaints against them. He said the (Split of his interests is to have the farmers properly warehouse their cotton and to market it gradually during the sea son. George W. Neville, an important factor in the New York cotton ex change, arraigned the report of Com missioner of Corporations Herbert Knox Smith as a "masterpiece of theory," but lacking in practicability in the working out of his theories. Charles S. Webb, a broker, contend ed for the necessity of "hedging" against future deliveries and pre dicted that abolishment of the cotton exchanges would put the price of cotton in the hand* of the spinners. Cotton Exchange Side of the Case. The cotton exchange interests pre sented their side of the case at Thursday's session of the hearing by the House committee on agriculture on the proposed legislation to pro hibit the dealings in future*. Pres ident S. T, Hubbard, of the New York cotton exchange; George W. Neville, one of the leading members All Kinds of Weather. Louisville, Ky., Special.—Last Fri day the South experienced all kinds of weather. At Tampa, Fla., it was warm: rain at Mobile, Ala.; freez ing at Atlanta, Ga., high winds at Galveston, Texas.

The committee has been receiving a heavy mail from people through out the country interested in the measures and Chairman Scott says he has received several hundred let ters from men claiming to be cotton producers urging the proposed legis lation. The opponents of the bills took the stand Thursday afternoon. Their spokesmen included President Hub bard, of the New York Cotton Ex change; Geo. W. Neville, and other members of that body, and Mr. Sol Cone, of Greensboro, N. C., a spot cotton dealer. D. J. Neill, rpresenting the Farm ers' Union, of Texas, testified that the Texas legislature blotted out bueketshops three years ago and the only brokers in Texas that suffered calamity thereby were two men who left tbe state for New York and break lambs in the hands of the ex change. Tie asserted that the farm ers of the country had been "pros trated b the exchanges." Uphold Exchanges. I>ast Friday A. R. Marsh of the N. Y. Coftou Exchange and J. E. La tham of Grensboro, N. 0., before the house committee on gambling in fu tures in cotton, upheld the exchanges. Senator Smith of South Carolina, sought o show that the violent fluc tntions in cotton were due o manip ulation, that the men on 'change got together and compared sheets, arbitrarily fixed prices and effected a clean up.

Palma, Island of Majorca, By Cable. —Driven helplessly from her course, in one of the wildest storms that has swept the Mediterranean sea in forty years, the French Trans-Atlan tic Steamship Company's steamer General Chanzy crashed at full speed, in the dead of night, on the treach erous reefs near the island of Minor ca and all but one of the 157 sojils on board perished last Friday, Only one aboard survived. No Americans* were aboard. The passengers of the Chanzy were mostly Freeh officers and officials returning to their |>ost in Algeria, accompanied by their wives and chil dren, a few soldiers, some Italians and Turks, and one priest. The only Anglo-Saxon names on the passenger list were Green and Stakely. There were members of an opera trope of eleven which had been engaged to sing at the Casino in Algiers. The General Chanzy sailed from Marseilr les Wednesday at noon and was due to nrive at Algiers Thursday after noon. The Chanzy is a total wreck. Night-Riders in Rockingham? Reidsville, N.

Washington, Special.-—The Sennte last Friday passed the Bennet "white slave" bill which had previously re ceived the sanction of the House.

Gets Two Year* in Pan. New York, Special.—Oliver Spitaer former doek , superintendent of the American Sugar Refining Company'a plant at Williamsburg, was last Thursday sentenced to two years in the Federal penitentiary at Atlanta, Ga., _ for his part in the recent ex tensive underweighing frauds.

Last Thursday Clark Howell, of Atlanta, was opeaaUd on for ap pssiirtii. TAFT DEFENDS PARTY. DmUtm Campaign Fledges Have Been Redeemed. New York, Special.—lf Wall St feet methods are such that the 'enforce ment of the law will promote panic, then* the quicker the methods are changed the better. Thus President Taft, at the Lincoln dinner of the Republican Club last Saturday made final reply to the pleadings of "The Interests.'' Thfcre will l>e no running amuck on the part of the administration, the president declared; but the law will be enforced —the Sherman anti-trust law, specifically. Recurring to the platform pledges of the Republican party, the president pointedly re minded his throng of hearers that no promises hud been made to rej>eal or amend or in any way to abate the rigors of the Sherman law. This law is on the statute books to be enforced,• the president declared, and it is the purpose of his adminis tration to enforce it. As an amelior ating agency, all that the president had to offer was the Federal incor poration bill, which is pending at Washington for the congress to take or let alone, as it pleases. Hut there is nothing more in this act that is in any way intended to let down the bars of the Sherman act even to those that avail themselves of it. Tn brief, the president renewed all of the strong declarations of (ho first message to congress and the special message on interstate commerce and Federal incorporation, and it must be taken for granted that his party is behind him in his plans, for the three thousand or more Republican diners who listened to the address cheered every declaration to the "cho. Taft returned lo his defense of the tariff, and h> figures showing the op eration of the Pnvne law of the past six months argued a decided revision downward. He pledged his adminis tration anew to the postal savings bank system, and in a general way covered the entire range of his legisla tive platform as it was laid down in the Repuhlicican platform and has since been devolped in the president's successive messages to Congress. It was upon the corporation policy, however, (hat the president laid greatest stress, and that he has not changed his mind. THE WEEK IN CONGRESS House Democrats to Line Up Against Ship Subsidy Bill. Washington, I). C., Special.—Ship subsidy legislation seems almost cer tain to pass the Senate, but (he Demo crats in the House are preparing to line up against the hill and they be lieve that with some Republican as sistance tliey will be able to defeat it.

Postal savings banks and appropriation bills will take up prac tically the entire week in the Senate In the blouse the rivers and harbors bill will probably occupy consider able time and there are other appro priation hills ready for considera tion.
